Injury knocks out Canada star from World Cup

Canada midfield star Ismael Kone will take no further part in the 2026 World Cup after he suffered a fracture against Qatar.

Kone had to be stretchered out in the group game in Vancouver after he fractured his fibula and tibia in a tackle.

He has undergone surgery with his mother by his side and he could now be out for between four and five months.

Canada won their first-ever World Cup game in style after they trounced 2022 World Cup hosts Qatar 6-0 to go top of their first round group.
